History

[edit]

The segment from Cuitzeo to Pátzcuaro, bypassing the major city of Morelia, was formally opened by President Enrique Peña Nieto on October 20, 2016, after construction had started in 2012 and six months after opening to traffic on April 14.[3][4] The concession for this 64.1-kilometre (39.8 mi) segment is held by PINFRA, Blackrock, AZVI and Sociedad Michoacana.
